quick question on the steering wheel:
I have an 08 which doesn't have the left hand steering buttons. Would it be a matter of taking those out and replace them with my original cover "sans switches"?.

Are the seat covers coming out too? (I believe they had the suede inserts no?)

There are seat covers comming out but are not available yet. As for the wheel covers I have heard of them being swapped out but have not ever personally done it, but I dont see a reason why they cant

I talked to some GM folks about this at the C5/C6 Bash, and they confirmed that the material used in the Carbon and Centennial Editions is actually a synthetic suede, not real suede.
They say that this material has been succesfully used for years in other GM cars (Cadillac XLR, Trailblazer SS,...) and is a lot more durable then real suede. It also doesn't peel after being used for a while, and can be cleaned with any regular fabric cleaner, like Scotch-Guard.

Hope this helps.

Gene, will the center faux suede seat covers fit the older '05 seats? If so, when might you be getting those in?
